If you are referring to Japanese people, thats because originally their names are usually written in Kanji. Most Japanese names are chosen for the meaning as far as I can see, and so they choose the kanji for the desired meaning. All kanji translates to hiragana and thus the sound of it's hiragana becomes the name of that person.
